28 degree clutch
Need a little help here please... I have a 2000 TXT with a 295 head on a 350 block. I recently changed my 36 degree clutch over to a 28 degree and now I am hitting the rev limiter so quick I can't even cruise.. I have wheel spinning power at takeoff but the difference in the angle on the clutches has caused my rev limiter to kick in before I can plane out. I have read some threads on the MSD ignition but have not seen any part numbers or distributors to buy from.. If somebody can get me some info., I would appreciate it.. Thanks

Re: 28 degree clutch
Is this a common thing here? I was planning to change mine over in the future but I don't want it to hit the rev limiter when trying to cruise around.

Re: 28 degree clutch
I don't thinks it' common, it's only become a problem with the 28 deg. Clutch... the change in gear ratio put me over the top... it ran fine with the 36... I am just experimenting to see how much I can get out of the mod. Engine.. lomcevac you won't regret the upgrade. I love it and you can't beat the added power..

Re: 28 degree clutch
OK, thanks. still have a stock engine, just looking for more power. Been thinking about changing the 36 degree clutch with the 28 degree cams. I just can't find someone that can sell just the clutch parts. I read that doing that will help out quite a bit. Plus I was wanting to machine the driven clutch. I can do it myself, I just don't know how much to take off of it. Thanks for the info.

Re: 28 degree clutch
lomcevac just know that I have a modified engine to an extent... Just the clutch alone isn't going to give you the gittyup that I've got... I don't want to lead you astray thinkin the 28 deg. clutch will give you the power my cart has. My 2000 txt has a 295cc cyl. head on a 350cc engine block with .50 oversize pistons and my compression is up to 245 psi on each cylinder.. That is all low end torque and is the reason I am hitting my rev limiter so quickly. That angle change on the clutch is gearing the engine down longer and peaking on the revs before the clutch can operate.

Re: 28 degree clutch
Yea, I understand that you have a modded engine. I was going to do this for a while, just can't find the parts to add 28 deg cams to a 36 deg clutch.

Re: 28 degree clutch
Try callin Tom at CPP ( Carts Parts Plus )... He can machine your existing clutch and probably give you some good info.. I have dealt with him before and he's a good guy...
